Oh, kissy kissy, Reedie Paul. In case you haven't noticed, the city that people like you have been pushing for decades isn't exactly coming together. In fact, it's going broke, it has no real economy, and unless the ship is righted soon, it won't have one for the rest of our lifetimes. Maybe Char-Lie needs to stay home and work on what to do about that, instead of dropping everything for a week to traipse off to Washington with his wife, dress up in a monkey suit, and act important standing next to the brain trust of Wyden and Blumenauer.

All you 6B rubes should just suck it up! At least Mr Mayor won't upstage the President with a press conference about his Breedlove sex-capades. Be glad he is outta town. The more he is gone from Portland, the less damage he can cause.
